Star Wars: Darkness Unleashed has finally been completed and after a successful premiere in Montreal at the Machinima Roadshow is now available to download.




With the defeat of Grand Admiral Thrawn, the Galactic Empire is left in ruins. The once Allied Imperial Leaders have turned into vicious warlords fighting over distant regions of space.

Meanwhile the former apprentice of long dead Imperial traitor, Alderson, has been searching the galaxy for ancient Sith artifacts that will give him enough power to unite the imperial factions and crush the New Republic.

Aboard the super star destroyer Executioner, the Dark Jedi has been held captive for two years. In that time he has been plotting revenge for the murder of Verrier and now bides his time to strike...

Woah! That's the best Jedi Academy FanFilm I've ever seen! 9/10

The angles that were used were very good! Especially the speederbike chase, and the final fight aboard the Super Star Destroyer.

It was ingenious to use Empire At Wars' space battles for the cutscenes in space.

Best of luck in any further films that you guys make!

If I were you, I'd submit a link to JK3Files or some such site, so more people in the JKA community can watch and enjoy it!

DorkmanScott: Oops, not sure what I did there. Thanks for the fix.

Kessno: Glad you enjoyed the fanfilm. I submitted it to jk3files earlier so it should be appearing there in a few days.


It's also available on YouTube now.

The original title was "RELEASE THREAD". It's usually preferable to be more descriptive. happy

I just got done with part one. I'm not usually a big fan of machinima, but that pretty good. I especially liked the speeder bike chase and the somewhat over the top kills.

I'm sick, sick, sick, sick of Zabrak, but I guess I needn't have worried. grin

I might check out the other parts later today.

Glad to hear you enjoyed it, I know Machinima isn't too popular over here but I thought it was worth posting anyway.

Did you watch part 2 and 3 as well?

I've seen the prequels before, and I saw this recently. I'm not sure what I shall say...

I wish the last battle could have been longer, and some stormtroopers and stuff. But overall, I enjoyed the series.

EDIT: I'm sure it wouldn't hurt posting this in the games forum too.

Darkness Unleashed has been entered into the Ivy Film Festival and in order to be reviewed by the judges needs to be one of the top 10 rated entries.

I was hoping to enlist the support of people here by heading over to the festival page and voting.

Thankyou! happy
